I never stated that you are wrong about why you feel v3 is better for
you, I only stated that if you are worried about the "tivoization"
issue, then you have a long time to be worried, as it only affects the
kernel. Also, since the Linux kernel is not going to change licenses,
this whole thing really isn't an issue at all.

I'm sorry, but "tivoized" is not a verb. Please explain what you mean
by this.
